箴言 31:30
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
艷麗是虛假的，美容是虛浮的；惟敬畏耶和華的婦女必得稱讚。
詩篇 119:37
Turn my eyes away from worthless things; preserve my life according to your word.
求你叫我轉眼不看虛假，又叫我在你的道中生活。
耶利米書 4:30
What are you doing, you devastated one? Why dress yourself in scarlet and put on jewels of gold? Why highlight your eyes with makeup? You adorn yourself in vain. Your lovers despise you; they want to kill you.
你淒涼的時候要怎樣行呢？你雖穿上朱紅衣服，佩戴黃金裝飾，用顏料修飾眼目，這樣標緻是枉然的！戀愛你的藐視你，並且尋索你的性命。
撒母耳記上 16:7
But the Lord said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart."
耶和華卻對撒母耳說：「不要看他的外貌和他身材高大，我不揀選他。因為，耶和華不像人看人：人是看外貌；耶和華是看內心。」
傳道書 1:14
I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
我見日光之下所做的一切事，都是虛空，都是捕風。
傳道書 5:10
Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. This too is meaningless.
貪愛銀子的，不因得銀子知足；貪愛豐富的，也不因得利益知足。這也是虛空。
申命記 32:47
They are not just idle words for you-they are your life. By them you will live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess."
因為這不是虛空、與你們無關的事，乃是你們的生命；在你們過約但河要得為業的地上必因這事日子得以長久。」
傳道書 2:11
Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun.
後來，我察看我手所經營的一切事和我勞碌所成的功。誰知都是虛空，都是捕風；在日光之下毫無益處。
傳道書 6:2
God gives some people wealth, possessions and honor, so that they lack nothing their hearts desire, but God does not grant them the ability to enjoy them, and strangers enjoy them instead. This is meaningless, a grievous evil.
就是人蒙神賜他資財、豐富、尊榮，以致他心裡所願的一樣都不缺，只是神使他不能吃用，反有外人來吃用。這是虛空，也是禍患。
馬太福音 7:1
- 5
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged.
For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?
How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?
You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
「你們不要論斷人，免得你們被論斷。
因為你們怎樣論斷人，也必怎樣被論斷；你們用什麼量器量給人，也必用什麼量器量給你們。
為什麼看見你弟兄眼中有刺，卻不想自己眼中有梁木呢？
你自己眼中有梁木，怎能對你弟兄說：『容我去掉你眼中的刺』呢？
你這假冒為善的人！先去掉自己眼中的梁木，然後才能看得清楚，去掉你弟兄眼中的刺。
希伯來書 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
你們存心不可貪愛錢財，要以自己所有的為足；因為主曾說：『我總不撇下你，也不丟棄你。』
傳道書 2:21
For a person may labor with wisdom, knowledge and skill, and then they must leave all they own to another who has not toiled for it. This too is meaningless and a great misfortune.
因為有人用智慧、知識、靈巧所勞碌得來的，卻要留給未曾勞碌的人為分。這也是虛空，也是大患。
傳道書 6:12
For who knows what is good for a person in life, during the few and meaningless days they pass through like a shadow? Who can tell them what will happen under the sun after they are gone?
人一生虛度的日子，就如影兒經過，誰知道什麼與他有益呢？誰能告訴他身後在日光之下有什麼事呢？
馬太福音 16:26
What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?
人若賺得全世界，賠上自己的生命，有什麼益處呢？人還能拿什麼換生命呢？
提摩太前書 4:8
For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.
「操練身體，益處還少；惟獨敬虔，凡事都有益處，因有今生和來生的應許。」

For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors,
知道你們得贖，脫去你們祖宗所傳流虛妄的行為，不是憑著能壞的金銀等物，
馬太福音 6:1
- 7
"Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
"So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.
But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.
But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.
「你們要小心，不可將善事行在人的面前，故意叫他們看見，若是這樣，就不能得你們天父的賞賜了。
所以，你施捨的時候，不可在你前面吹號，像那假冒為善的人在會堂裡和街道上所行的，故意要得人的榮耀。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們的賞賜。
你施捨的時候，不要叫左手知道右手所做的，
要叫你施捨的事行在暗中。你父在暗中察看，必然報答你（有古卷：必在明處報答你）。」
「你們禱告的時候，不可像那假冒為善的人，愛站在會堂裡和十字路口上禱告，故意叫人看見。我實在告訴你們，他們已經得了他們的賞賜。
你禱告的時候，要進你的內屋，關上門，禱告你在暗中的父；你父在暗中察看，必然報答你。
你們禱告，不可像外邦人，用許多重複話，他們以為話多了必蒙垂聽。
羅馬書 12:2
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.
不要效法這個世界，只要心意更新而變化，叫你們察驗何為神的善良、純全、可喜悅的旨意。
箴言 28:19
Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies will have their fill of poverty.
耕種自己田地的，必得飽食；追隨虛浮的，足受窮乏。
加拉太書 5:16
- 26
So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want.
But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery;
idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions
and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.
我說，你們當順著聖靈而行，就不放縱肉體的情慾了。
因為情慾和聖靈相爭，聖靈和情慾相爭，這兩個是彼此相敵，使你們不能做所願意做的。
但你們若被聖靈引導，就不在律法以下。
情慾的事都是顯而易見的，就如姦淫、污穢、邪蕩、
拜偶像、邪術、仇恨、爭競、忌恨、惱怒、結黨、分爭、異端、
嫉妒（有古卷加：兇殺二字）、醉酒、荒宴等類。我從前告訴你們，現在又告訴你們，行這樣事的人必不能承受神的國。
聖靈所結的果子，就是仁愛、喜樂、和平、忍耐、恩慈、良善、信實、
溫柔、節制。這樣的事沒有律法禁止。
凡屬基督耶穌的人，是已經把肉體連肉體的邪情私慾同釘在十字架上了。
我們若是靠聖靈得生，就當靠聖靈行事。
不要貪圖虛名，彼此惹氣，互相嫉妒。
歌羅西書 3:5
Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry.
所以，要治死你們在地上的肢體，就如淫亂、污穢、邪情、惡慾，和貪婪（貪婪就與拜偶像一樣）。
雅各書 1:26
Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless.
若有人自以為虔誠，卻不勒住他的舌頭，反欺哄自己的心，這人的虔誠是虛的。
約伯記 7:16
I despise my life; I would not live forever. Let me alone; my days have no meaning.
我厭棄性命，不願永活。你任憑我吧，因我的日子都是虛空。
詩篇 78:33
So he ended their days in futility and their years in terror.
因此，他叫他們的日子全歸虛空，叫他們的年歲盡屬驚恐。
箴言 12:11
Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies have no sense.
耕種自己田地的，必得飽食；追隨虛浮的，卻是無知。
傳道書 2:26
To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
神喜悅誰，就給誰智慧、知識，和喜樂；惟有罪人，神使他勞苦，叫他將所收聚的、所堆積的歸給神所喜悅的人。這也是虛空，也是捕風。
傳道書 11:9
- 10
You who are young, be happy while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.
So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body, for youth and vigor are meaningless.
少年人哪，你在幼年時當快樂。在幼年的日子，使你的心歡暢，行你心所願行的，看你眼所愛看的；卻要知道，為這一切的事，神必審問你。
所以，你當從心中除掉愁煩，從肉體克去邪惡；因為一生的開端和幼年之時，都是虛空的。
約翰福音 8:32
Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
你們必曉得真理，真理必叫你們得以自由。」
腓立比書 2:2
- 8
then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,
not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death- even death on a cross!
你們就要意念相同，愛心相同，有一樣的心思，有一樣的意念，使我的喜樂可以滿足。
凡事不可結黨，不可貪圖虛浮的榮耀；只要存心謙卑，各人看別人比自己強。
各人不要單顧自己的事，也要顧別人的事。
你們當以基督耶穌的心為心：
他本有神的形像，不以自己與神同等為強奪的；
反倒虛己，取了奴僕的形像，成為人的樣式；
既有人的樣子，就自己卑微，存心順服，以至於死，且死在十字架上。
提摩太前書 6:20
Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to your care. Turn away from godless chatter and the opposing ideas of what is falsely called knowledge,
提摩太啊，你要保守所託付你的，躲避世俗的虛談和那敵真道、似是而非的學問。
提摩太後書 2:14
Keep reminding God's people of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen.
你要使眾人回想這些事，在主面前囑咐他們：不可為言語爭辯；這是沒有益處的，只能敗壞聽見的人。
提多書 3:9
But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.
要遠避無知的辯論和家譜的空談，以及分爭，並因律法而起的爭競，因為這都是虛妄無益的。
希伯來書 4:12
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
神的道是活潑的，是有功效的，比一切兩刃的劍更快，甚至魂與靈，骨節與骨髓，都能刺入、剖開，連心中的思念和主意都能辨明。
希伯來書 13:9
Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings. It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods, which is of no benefit to those who do so.
你們不要被那諸般怪異的教訓勾引了去；因為人心靠恩得堅固才是好的，並不是靠飲食。那在飲食上專心的從來沒有得著益處。
詩篇 39:6
"Surely everyone goes around like a mere phantom; in vain they rush about, heaping up wealth without knowing whose it will finally be.
世人行動實係幻影。他們忙亂，真是枉然；積蓄財寶，不知將來有誰收取。
詩篇 127:2
In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat- for he grants sleep to those he loves.
你們清晨早起，夜晚安歇，吃勞碌得來的飯，本是枉然；惟有耶和華所親愛的，必叫他安然睡覺。
箴言 13:11
Dishonest money dwindles away, but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow.
不勞而得之財必然消耗；勤勞積蓄的，必見加增。
傳道書 1:2
"Meaningless! Meaningless!" says the Teacher. "Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless."
傳道者說：虛空的虛空，虛空的虛空，凡事都是虛空。
馬可福音 10:19
You know the commandments: 'You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.' "
誡命你是曉得的：不可殺人；不可姦淫；不可偷盜；不可作假見證；不可虧負人；當孝敬父母。」
羅馬書 2:1
- 4
You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.
Now we know that God's judgment against those who do such things is based on truth.
So when you, a mere human being, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God's judgment?
Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?
你這論斷人的，無論你是誰，也無可推諉。你在什麼事上論斷人，就在什麼事上定自己的罪；因你這論斷人的，自己所行卻和別人一樣。
我們知道這樣行的人，神必照真理審判他。
你這人哪，你論斷行這樣事的人，自己所行的卻和別人一樣，你以為能逃脫神的審判嗎？
還是你藐視他豐富的恩慈、寬容、忍耐，不曉得他的恩慈是領你悔改呢？
以弗所書 4:17
So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.
所以我說，且在主裡確實的說，你們行事不要再像外邦人存虛妄的心行事。
雅各書 2:14
What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?
我的弟兄們，若有人說自己有信心，卻沒有行為，有什麼益處呢？這信心能救他嗎？
彼得後書 2:18
For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error.
他們說虛妄矜誇的大話，用肉身的情慾和邪淫的事引誘那些剛才脫離妄行的人。
約伯記 4:8
As I have observed, those who plow evil and those who sow trouble reap it.
按我所見，耕罪孽、種毒害的人都照樣收割。
詩篇 62:9
Surely the lowborn are but a breath, the highborn are but a lie. If weighed on a balance, they are nothing; together they are only a breath.
下流人真是虛空；上流人也是虛假；放在天平裡就必浮起；他們一共比空氣還輕。
傳道書 2:19
And who knows whether that person will be wise or foolish? Yet they will have control over all the fruit of my toil into which I have poured my effort and skill under the sun. This too is meaningless.
那人是智慧是愚昧，誰能知道？他竟要管理我勞碌所得的，就是我在日光之下用智慧所得的。這也是虛空。
傳道書 2:17
So I hated life, because the work that is done under the sun was grievous to me. All of it is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
我所以恨惡生命；因為在日光之下所行的事我都以為煩惱，都是虛空，都是捕風。
傳道書 9:9
Enjoy life with your wife, whom you love, all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun-all your meaningless days. For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labor under the sun.
在你一生虛空的年日，就是神賜你在日光之下虛空的年日，當同你所愛的妻，快活度日，因為那是你生前在日光之下勞碌的事上所得的分。
傳道書 11:10
So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body, for youth and vigor are meaningless.
所以，你當從心中除掉愁煩，從肉體克去邪惡；因為一生的開端和幼年之時，都是虛空的。
傳道書 12:8
"Meaningless! Meaningless!" says the Teacher. "Everything is meaningless!"
傳道者說：「虛空的虛空，凡事都是虛空。」
